On Windows 7 Every link I click on, even if firefox is already open and it only needs to open another tab, I see this message: "Do you want to allow this program to make changes on this computer?" Of course I want it to make changes on my computer, it is my default browser. Anyone know, how can I tell windows to "bug-off" and let it open without asking permission every time. Windows 7 home (windows security center is disabled btw) Firefox 8.0

Check that you do not run Firefox as Administrator.

Right-click the Firefox desktop shortcut and choose "Properties".

Make sure that all items are deselected in the "Compatibility" tab of the Properties window.

  • Privilege Level: "Run this program as Administrator" should not be selected
  • "Run this program in compatibility mode for:" should not be selected

Also check the Properties of the firefox.exe program in the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).
